Chapter 209 Fifty-eight: Guest
Outside the Dongyue Temple, Sao Qingniang led a group of monsters and ordered a few bowls of wontons in the restaurant with less crowds at the alley. It was the first time that Qingchi Eryasha appeared in the crowd, and she was very excited. She pulled Tushanwei and asked the fox girl to comment on who was better at the Nuo dance. Hongyao sipped a few sips of the hot wonton soup, looked at the flying lights in the sky for a while, and then turned her eyes to the pedestrians coming and going. After looking for a while, she muttered, "Why haven't Alang come back yet?"
Sao Qingniang whispered: "Mr. Bi asked him to go, so he should have something to explain."
Hong Yao said: "It's been a few hours."
Xu Da glanced at the side, saw that the shopkeeper was far away, and whispered: "Why don't we go back first?"
Hong Yao was stunned and shook her head and said, "No."
Xu Da wanted to speak but stopped, and finally just smiled.
Hong Yao wondered: "What are you keeping? Tell me quickly if you have something to do!"
Xu Da looked at Hongyao, "If you understand... you will understand it naturally, but it is not convenient for us to say it."
Hong Yao grabbed Xu Da and mentioned it in front of him, "What a mystery, do you say or not? I'm so angry if you don't say it."
"The goddess has something to say, let us go, let us go." Xu Da returned to Sao Qingniang's leg and coughed dryly, "We thought Alang would not come back tonight."
Hong Yao opened her eyes wide, "How could it be?"
Xu Da looked at Tu Shanwei again, "The goddess and the fox fairy are both handsome and beautiful. They have been with Alang for a long time. Have you ever seen Alang have something... Hehe... a different kind of thought? Alang is naturally a gentleman among people and a gentleman among people, but Alang is also a man. There are many beauties in the city of Yujing. Standing on the upper floor with a long sleeve and throwing a few charming eyes, which one can withstand? Bijun takes Alang, I'm afraid..." Before he finished speaking, Saoqing's mother bounced her forehead and hurriedly stopped.
Hong Yao didn't understand it at first, and after thinking for a while, she understood what Xu Da meant, "Well, Xu Da, how dare you arrange Alang behind your back?"
Xu Da shouted: "Goddess, blame me, just say if what we said makes sense?"
Hong Yao snorted, "There's a big deal."
Tu Shanwei said quietly: "Alang is at the age of strong blood, so this is not uncommon."
Xu Da said proudly: "What the Fox Fairy Queen said."
Hong Yao let out a "ah" and frowned.
Qing Chi Yasha no longer argued about who was dancing the Nuo dance well. Chi Yasha said, "The goddess and the fox fairy are so beautiful that they can never be moved by Alang. I wonder what kind of beauty can make Alang look at?"
Qing Yasha said, "I must be no worse than the goddess and the fox fairy."
Tushan slanted green yaksha at a glance.
Xu Da said: "This is a bad saying. Alang will start a family and start a career in the future and have some children... Although the two empresses are beautiful and wise, they are different ways of being a shemale and a shemale."
"What kind of shemale way?" Li Chan came in from outside the door, put a packet of roasted quail on the table, and smiled and said, "Why, you want to start your own business and not follow me?"
Hong Yao finally saw Li Chan, breathed a sigh of relief, and gave Xu Da a blank look, "It's this guy who wants to start his own business. Xu Da, isn't Alang coming back now?"
"Who said I can't come back?" Li Chan looked at Xu Da.
"Wrong, wrong." Xu Da said with a compliment, "We just said that Alang is probably going to chant the wind and play the moon, and Fengliu is gone. I didn't expect that Alang still misses us."
Li Chan smiled and looked around everyone, but she didn't see Bi Jun's figure. "Bi Jun hasn't come back yet?"
Tu Shanyi said, "Didn't Bi Jun walk with Alang?"
Li Chan shook her head, "Bi Jun is separated from me for almost two hours."
"Old friend?" Hong Yao said strangely, "Where are old friends in Yujing?"
Xu Da shouted: "Don't make a fuss about Goddess. Bi Jun is a monster who has seen a great world. What's so strange about this?"
"Bi Jun has seen the world, but you have seen the world." Hongyao said: "What has Alang been doing for so long?"
Li Chan hesitated for a moment and replied only: "I met an acquaintance on the road."
...
Li Chan waited for two quarters of an hour outside the Dongyue Temple, but before Bijun returned, he took the monsters back to Guangzhaifang when he was approaching his son. The night market in Yujing has always been all night long, and the same is true for gatherings such as temple fairs and lantern festivals. Although the little monsters at home did not attend the temple fair, they also played and celebrated at home, and it was around Yin hour. The little monster burned a large bucket of hot water. After Li Chan took a shower, the sky was a little white.
Since the emperor came back, it has been a rare sunny day. The bedding on the bed has taken the opportunity to dry it, and there is still some warm smell. Li Chan lay on her arms for a while, and she was not sleepy. She simply crossed her legs, closed her eyes, and meditated in front of the rising sun.
The monsters also rested late, but at the end of Mao, the sound of kneading dough and chopping wood in the kitchen still sounded. At around Si, Li Chan lifted the mattress on his knees, got out of bed and went to the garden for a walk. Hong Yao was making the chicken bone fragrance I bought last night, and Tu Shanyi made a mirror embryo grinding there from somewhere. The two yakshas boasted to the little monsters about the grand occasion last night. It was the fourth day of the first lunar month, and the Lantai was not open, and Li Chan was bored and called Xu Da to play the game. But perhaps he had not been asleep all night and was not very clear-headed. After Xu Da won the game, he was not very interested and went into the study and revisited "Shi Shi Yi" with Mai Wang.
The contents of this book were originally Li Chan's experiences. Since Mai Wang came, some stories have been added, either Mai Wang's own experiences or books that transform from other books. The two were sorting out the demons and strange stories of the Treasure Lion Kingdom outside the territory. The old bookworm asked: "Since ancient times, some of the strange books only record different things, some are metaphors, and some are for education. I wonder what the lord's original intention was, or both?"
Li Chan said: "I am just recording different things, but if some other things are interpreted, they can also be used as metaphor or education."
Mai Wang said, "This is of course. The so-called loud sound is rare, and the elephant is invisible. Things in the world have their own reasons. If you want to deliberately seek education, you will fall into the inferior. However, the lord might as well classify these strange things, such as the revenge of this snake girl, which can be classified into the retribution. The affairs of this wall girl are also a metaphor for satirical."
Li Chan thought for a while, nodded and said something reasonable. At this time, when the generals of the house came to the house, Li Chan put his pen and left the study.
When I got outside and opened the door, I saw that the visitor was a middle-aged man wearing a green jacket and slightly dark skin. I smiled at Li Chan and said, "Long time no see."
Li Chan said in surprise: "Brother Xu?"
Xu Yingqiu looked beside him again and smiled and said, "Look at who else."
The man next to Xu Yingqiu had a green beard, which was Zheng Junshan, the magistrate of Qingling County. He smiled at Li Chan: "I met in a hurry in Qingling County, so I was very negligent. I don't know that Li Langhuan would not welcome me."
"Of course we welcome." Li Chan smiled, "Please come in, please come in, two." As he said that, he led the two into the house. When approaching the Western Kitchen, he called out loudly: "Red medicine, cook a pot of green rice!"
Xu Yingqiu went into the house and looked around. He saw several demonic figures peeping behind the wall. When he entered the house, he saw the white cat nesting under the window and said in surprise: "Is this the cat in "Cat Play Candle Picture"?"
Li Chan smiled and said, "That's right."
Xu Yingqiu was amazed and smiled at Zheng Junshan, saying, "I met Li Lang because of that painting. Unfortunately, the painting was not around. Today, I saw the real thing, and it was indeed true."
The three of them talked and sat on the side of the desk.
After a while, a pot of tea brought by Hongyao. Xu Yingqiu looked at Hongyao's leaving back and said meaningfully: "So, this is the case when ghost soldiers return food?"
When Li Chan entered the door, she wanted to serve tea with red medicine, but she didn't intend to hide the fact that she had raised many monsters. She smiled unanimously and brought a pot to pour tea for the two of them.
Zheng Junshan said seriously: "I had only guessed before, but I could confirm it today. This ceremony was written by the people of Qingling County, thanking Li Lang for the sake of Qingling County." He stood up and bowed deeply to Li Chan.
"I just do it casually. Zheng Mingfu did much more for Qingling County than me. How can you thank me?" Li Chan invited Zheng Junshan back to his seat, "Have you found out some food?"
Zheng Junshan shook his head, sighed, and said only the word "difficult".
Xu Yingqiu changed the topic and said, "I heard that the ghost master returned the food and was shocked for a while, but unfortunately I couldn't see it with my own eyes. Now the two people who have experienced it are in front of me. Can you tell me the details of it a little bit, but I regret it?"
Zheng Junshan smiled bitterly, "I was detained at the post station by Ning Xun when I was arrested, and I only knew what happened later." He said that, looking at Li Chan.
Li Chan took a look at the study room, and his heart moved. After a while, he went to the study room to pick up "Shi Shi Yi" and wrote it out.
"Oh, this is it?" Xu Yingqiu read a Ghost Lord Changping, "Is this your book?"
Li Chan nodded, "It's all about writing."
Xu Yingqiu raised his eyebrows, looked through a few more articles, and handed the booklet to Zheng Junshan. Zheng Junshan looked more detailed than Xu Yingqiu. After a while, the two looked at each other. Zheng Junshan nodded, and Xu Yingqiu said to Li Chan: "Although the records in this book are all strange things, they are very skilled in writing, especially the skill of refining characters, I can't even see the skills. If I hadn't been in the sea of ** for decades, I would never have such skills, I didn't expect that you would have accumulated so much at such a young age."
Li Chan said: "This is not all my credit. This skill in refining words depends on my friends."
Xu Yingqiu smiled and said, "You are humble."
After a while, Zheng Junshan also read several monsters. Suddenly, he saw one of them, which was about his own self. A lonely look flashed in his eyes. He sighed inwardly, and couldn't bear to read it again. He said, "The book is full of monsters and monsters. In previous years, there were very few traces of monsters in Dayong's territory, but now there are frequent disasters and monsters, and demons ravaged the states, which is far less peaceful than in previous years. If the people can read this book, they may be able to seek profit and avoid harm."
Xu Yingqiu said: "Yes, it's indeed a good book. Did Li Lang intend to engrave books? I know some engraving shops, and some official engravings have them. If this book can be circulated, it will probably be popular for a while."
Although Li Chan's identity was not revealed in this book, it was almost all the real things he experienced. Li Chan hesitated for a moment and shook her head and said, "I haven't considered this."
"You might as well consider it." Xu Yingqiu said, "If you don't mention this, would Li Lang be willing to borrow my money to write this book?"
If you want to praise a book, no matter how many praises you have, they are not as good as borrowing and copying. Li Chan smiled and said, "Of course."
Zheng Junshan said: "Ying Qiu finished copying, lend me another copy."
Li Chan smiled and said, "Thanks to the two great scholars."
Zheng Junshan remembered the dead Zheng Langjun because of the book, and also remembered the spring exam at Qianyuan Academy, and asked: "I heard that you are going to take the Qianyuan Academy, how are you preparing?"
Li Chan said: "Martial arts have not fallen behind, and practice has improved. Can you study? You can be considered as having a good time."
Xu Yingqiu said: "Who is the one who is willing to praise you?"
Li Chan shook her head, "No one."
Xu Yingqiu was stunned, "You haven't done the book?"
Li Chan shook her head again.
Xu Yingqiu smiled, "Not bad."
